2000 B.C. Here, eat this root
A.D. 1000 That root is heathen. Here, say this prayer
A.D. 1850 That prayer is superstition. Here, drink this potion
A.D. 1940 That potion is snake oil. Here, swallow this pill
A.D. 1985 That pill is ineffective. Here, take this antibiotic
A.D. 2000 That antibiotic is artificial. Here, eat this root
